SPIRAEA 
A well-known, much planted family — nevertheless deserving of con¬ 
tinued planting, having many members of great beauty. The Spireas fall 
into two main groups — (1) medium and large sorts with white flowers, 
ranging from April to July—(2) dwarf sorts with red, pink or white 
flowers in July and August. The spring flowers are borne all along the 
branches; the summer flowers in small heads at the ends of the branches. 
The spring flowering sorts thrive in all soils; the summer-bloomers like 
lime.
